Concessionary Fares
We offer concessionary fares for disabled persons or those with reduced mobility, subject to the production of proof of eligibility*. At Hovertravel, we're proud of the fact that we recognise the importance of helping disabled persons or those with reduced mobility and from this, we also offer a free HoverCare service to ensure your experience is the best it can be.
